Day 18 of the #musicaladventcalendar

Not really a Christmas song, but it’s always given me festive Christmas vibes:

The Planets, Mvt. 4:  Jupiter, the Bringer of Jollity
Gustav Holst

 Such a marvelous piece. 

Also not Christmas but the hymn "O God Beyond All Praising" utilizes a section from Jupiter.  

 Interesting; I’m going to look that up now! 

 Here is a lovely version

 The same section of Jupiter is also used in an old English patriotic song "I Vow to Thee My Country" 

This is a beautiful version:
